Pollutant Size Comparison

Comparison of particulate matter sizes with a human hair

Particulate Matter (PM) is a complex mix of solid particles and liquid droplets that float in the air. We can breathe these pollutants in, and they can harm long-term health and wellbeing.

A Guide to Particulate Matter (PM)

Particulate Matter (PM) is grouped by particle diameter, with PM2.5 (fine particles) and PM10 (coarse particles) being the main markers used to track air quality.

Learn about different PM sizes

  • PM1

    Ultrafine particles with a diameter of 1 micrometre or smaller. They can pass straight into the bloodstream and pose health risks across the body.

  • PM2.5

    Fine particles smaller than 2.5 micrometres. These are small enough to reach deep into the lungs, which may lead to long-term health conditions.

  • PM10

    Particles you can inhale with a diameter of 10 micrometres or smaller, including dust and pollen. They can irritate the airways and set off allergies.

  • Particle Count

    This metric measures the total number of particles in the air, whatever their size. It gives you a full picture of the overall air quality in one number.

  • Vehicle exhaust as a source of PM pollutionVehicle Emissions
  • Industrial activity as a source of PM pollutionIndustrial Emissions
  • Construction dust as a source of PM pollutionConstruction Sites
  • Smoke and wildfires as sources of PM pollutionWildfires
  • Dusty unpaved roads as sources of PM pollutionRoad Dust

Accuracy Test: Prana Air Sensor vs. BAM

Comparison of Prana Air sensor data with BAM reference monitor

A detailed validation study was carried out. In it, the Prana Air PM sensor was tested against the standard Beta Attenuation Monitoring (BAM) system.

The results showed a strong correlation. This confirms that our sensor performs at close to reference grade.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Prana Air PM Sensor is a state-of-the-art digital laser sensor. It is built to track PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 with precision, and it uses 90° light scattering to give you reliable data in real time.

Our sensor measures particulate matter from 0 to 31,000 µg/m³. That makes it a good fit for ambient air quality checks, and also for very polluted industrial and construction sites.

The sensor can detect particles as small as 0.3 micrometres (µm). This matters for tracking fine pollutants that can get into the airways and the bloodstream.

The sensor has been tested against global reference-grade monitors, including Beta Attenuation Monitoring (BAM) systems and TSI DustTrak. Independent research by technical bodies around the world backs this up. It confirms a close match with industry standards.

Leading groups around the world use our sensors, across sectors such as research, healthcare, and infrastructure. Well-known users include the Boston Consulting Group (BCG), as well as many universities and environmental bodies in other countries.

The sensor is now in use at over 2,000 construction and industrial sites worldwide, which shows how tough and accurate it is in demanding field conditions.

Key features include a dust-proof duct that stops clogging, a moisture-resistant circuit board, and a closed-loop fan system for stable airflow. It works well in temperatures from -20°C to +70°C.

The sensor connects to a monitoring hub, which sends the data to the cloud via Wi-Fi, GSM, or RS-485. You can view the real-time data in mobile apps or on web dashboards.

Yes. Prana Air also makes indoor PM sensors for schools, homes, and offices. These pick up even small changes in air quality, and they are designed for non-stop indoor use.
